Subsoil

Over 20,000 years ago, the Missoula Floods deposited sediment deep into the rich subsoils of the renowned Columbia Basin in Washington State. In each bottle of Subsoil, you discover a truly unique wine experience that showcases the distinct character and bright, ripe fruit from the Horse Heaven Hills.

The ripe flavors in the mouth lead into a soft, lingering finish with a touch of bright acidity that leaves you wanting more.

Aromas of grapefruit and bright lime zest are abundant on the nose, finishing with honesuckle and passionfruit. The racy acidity from the Sauvignon blanc carries through the midpalate, rounding out with the savory tropical notes from the Viognier.

2016 Small Lot Dry Riesling

We fermented and aged 10% of this wine on the skins, creating a wine with amazing aromas and texture. The complexity of this wine greets you in layers. Fresh fruit is first with lychee, white peach, and orange blossom followed by the warmth of honey and beeswax. Steely minerality and a core of acid focuses the fruit. On the palate, the wine has mouthwatering acidity and fresh fruit. The flavors in the palate mirror the aromas and linger nicely on the finish.
